Pear Halves with Blue Cheese and Toasted Nuts

This dish was my contribution to the cook book club dinner, and I selected it both because it was suggested as the ideal accompaniment to the pork and because there are lots of excellent pears available.

That this dish was simple to make was a delightful bonus. Pears are cut in half, cored, and filled with blue cheese. Then toasted walnuts and dried cranberries were sprinkled over the top.

Sometimes simple really is best.
